AP Exemptions/Transfer Credits

To check for these courses via Owl Express, select the Student Records tab and then click on the View
Academic Transcript link. Courses exempted through AP or transferred in from other colleges should be listed at
the bottom of the transcript.
   -   If course(s) exempted via AP scores is/are not listed, contact the College Board to send an official AP
       score report to KSU. You may have provided an “unofficial” screenshot to a DEP advisor, but an official
       copy must be sent to KSU.

   -   Once your registration window is complete (two-weeks), a DA Hold is placed on your account, and you will

Schedule Change Policy
If after your schedule is approved by both your DEP advisor and your high school counselor, and it becomes

   -   Simply email depadvising@kennesaw.edu and CC your High School Counselor detailing the change you
       wish to make so we can add the DocuSign Schedule Change Request Form to your envelope for
       completion.

REGISTRATION HOLDS
     Registration holds require students to take certain actions before they are allowed to register for classes.
     Since holds can be placed at any time by other offices, you will want to check for any holds now and again one
      to two days before your time ticket opens.
     DEP Advisors cannot remove a hold placed by another office.

How to Check for Holds
Through Owl Express, select “Student Records” tab and click “View Academic Transcript” link.

Common Holds for Dual Enrollment Students
AO – Admissions Office
Student needs to send official transcript(s) from previous institution(s) showing grades for completed course(s) directly
to KSU. Contact DEP Admissions for questions (depadmissions@kennesaw.edu or 770-423-6300)

BO – Bursar’s Office
Student needs to pay outstanding balance and contact the Bursar’s Office directly to have hold removed as this is not an
automatic process. The DEP office or advisors are not able to see a student’s itemized account. If you have questions,
you will need to contact the Bursar’s Office directly (bursars@kennesaw.edu or 470-578-6419).

Dual Enrollment Advising Hold (DA Hold)
This hold is placed on all student accounts by the DEP advisors. This hold is removed when the advisors receive course
approval from student’s high school counselor. Once the student has registered for his/her classes, the DEP advisors
replace the DA Hold. Please note that this hold is on a student’s account at all times unless the student is actively
registering. This stops a student from making course changes without prior approval. For questions, please email
depadvising@kennesaw.edu.

Dual Enrollment Hold (DU Hold) – DEP Program Office
For new dual enrollment students, it indicates that the student has not completed the New Student Information Form
and the Dual Enrollment Policy Agreement. These are found on the DEP website (https://uc.kennesaw.edu/dep/) under
“Accepted Student Forms”. For current dual enrollment students, it indicates that the student has not successfully
completed the online orientation and quizzes. The virtual orientation is found on the DEP website
(https://uc.kennesaw.edu/dep/).For questions, please email depoffice@kennesaw.edu or call 470-578-6116.

Immunization (H1, H2, H3, M2, TD, V1, V2) Holds – Immunization Services Office
Student needs to send proof of immunizations. For further information, visit the Immunizations website,
https://immunizations.kennesaw.edu/index.php, email immunizationsvc@kennesaw.edu, or call 470-578-7566.

Lawful Presence (RV Hold) – Admissions Office
Student needs to supply proof of lawful presence (driver’s license, passport, birth certificate). Visit
https://enrollmentservices.kennesaw.edu/lawful-presence.php to access the “Lawful Presence Verification Submission
Form” or send an email to depadmissions@kennesaw.edu, or call 770-423-6300.

KSU Alert Emergency Notification System
KSU ALERT is an emergency notification system that notifies students, faculty and
staff of critical information and situations affecting the KSU campus through the
use of text messages, voice messages and email.

KSU encourages students to list their cellphone number as their primary phone
number in Owl Express so that KSU Alerts are sent to student cellphones in the
event of an emergency.

Although college campuses are usually safe places, emergencies and disasters do
occur. KSU is committed to keeping the campus community as safe as possible
through effective communication prior to, during and following emergencies.

To update the phone number that will receive KSU Alert contacts:

       •   Log in to Owl Express.
       •   Click Student Records
       •   Click Personal Information Menu
       •   Click Contact Information – Update
       •   To change the phone number listed as your primary phone, click on the
           “Primary” link next to your phone number
       •   Click Submit

In the event of an emergency, you will receive a text message within 30 seconds
of its release. You will receive a voice message within 8 minutes.

Class Schedule Search

Class Schedule Search
Kennesaw State University’s Schedule of Classes consists of the list of courses offered each term. It is made
available to students approximately two weeks prior to the start of registration. Please note that the list of
course offerings reflects real time information and course offerings are subject to change. Several days before
registration you will want to double-check that your planned classes are still being offered and that the class
days/times have not changed.

To access the dynamic course search engine:

   1.   Log into Owl Express: www.kennesaw.edu/owlexpress with your NetID and password.
   2.   Click on the top Registration tab.
   3.   Click on the Class Schedule Search button.
   4.   Select the Fall 2020 from the dropdown list and click the Submit button.

To find possible courses:

The Class Schedule Search feature allows you to look for all course offerings and narrow down your search by
several fields. We recommend you use your course prefix and number (ex. MATH 1111 or ENGL 1101) to
begin and then narrow your search once you have seen the total options.

Sample class schedule listing:

COURSE LINE:

   •    OPEN/CLOSED/WAITLIST
           o OPEN (green block with a “”).
           o CLOSED (red block with an “X”).
           o WAITLIST (blue block; we do not recommend this option).
   •    Course identified by prefix, section number, and title.

Wait Lists

Classes will fill up the closer we get to the start of the semester. Many courses have wait lists
built into them. You can see if a course has a wait list by looking at the schedule of classes,
which can be found under the Registration tab in Owl Express – “Class Schedule Search”.

Once you pull up the subject you wish to see (e.g. Computer Science), you will see course
listings like this:

If a course has a wait list, it will show up on the right-hand side of the course listing like this:

The “Waitlist Capacity” is how many students can be on the wait list. The “Waitlist Count” is
how many are currently on the waitlist. The “Waitlist Availability” is how many spots are open
on the waitlist for the course.

To get on the waitlist for a course, you should copy the CRN of the course down

Put that into one of the text boxes on the “Class Registration (Add or Drop Classes)”
page in your Registration tab. Click Submit. A box will pop up saying the wait list is
available for the course.

You must click on the drop-down box under the “Action” column and select Wait List, then
click the submit button. You will then be on the wait list.

If you are number 1 on the wait list and a spot becomes open in the course, you will receive an
e-mail at your KSU email address. You will have 12 hours to register for the course. If you
do not register, you will be bumped off the wait list and the next student on the wait list will then
be given the chance to register.

If you are on a waitlist, check your KSU email address very frequently!

                                                   18
View and Pay your Fee Balance
                   KSU does not mail invoices! You must access your invoice online.

Payment deadline:
        Fall 2020 – August 31st @4PM
Please Note! Once your schedule is finalized, you do not need to wait until the payment deadline to pay your
portion of your bill.

When will Dual Enrollment funds be posted to my account?
Our campus partners work on funding throughout the registration window. Final funding is typically posted to
students’ accounts on the final day of drop/add for each term to ensure that charges accurately reflect any
changes to student credit hours made during drop/add. Until funds are posted, students will see “Estimated
Financial Aid” and “Estimated Balance Due” when they check their accounts as instructed below.

What should I owe for each semester?
After Dual Enrollment funds have been posted, students should owe only for course-specific fees (science
labs, computer science fee, etc.) and parking (if you selected a parking area). If Dual Enrollment funds have
been applied and your balance is more than your course-specific fees and parking, please contact the Bursar’s
Office (470-578-6419). For privacy reasons, the DEP office cannot view itemized student accounts.

How do I check my balance?
To access your account and view itemized charges,
   • Go to www.kennesaw.edu/owlexpress and log in with your NetID and password.
   • From the Main Menu, select the “Student Services” tab and then “View Current Account or Pay Online.”
   • You will be directed to the Student Account Suite. Enter your NetID and password again.
   • You will see a Current Account Status summary box that lists amount due, estimated financial aid, and
      balance due after financial aid.
   • To see your itemized invoice, click “View Account Activity.” Items noted as “WVR” with a negative
      amount are fees that are waived by KSU as a courtesy to DEP students. Dual Enrollment funding will
      appear on your invoice as “Third Party Contract Payment.”

Parental access to the Student Account Suite:
To authorize a parent to view their charges and make payments, students should log in to the Account Suite as
noted above and click on "Authorized Users" at the top of the page and enter parent information.

How do I pay?

TEXTBOOKS & MATERIALS
Getting Your Textbooks
   1. Textbooks are provided to Dual Enrollment students at no cost to the student through KSU’s University Stores
      (the Bookstore). These materials are either loaned to the student and must be returned at the end of the term,
      or given to the student to be used for the class such as lab books.
   2. DO NOT purchase covered textbooks out of pocket. There is no mechanism in place to reimburse you through
      Dual Enrollment funding for prior purchases.
   3. Textbooks will be available for pickup prior to the first day of class according to your last name. You are
      strongly encouraged to pick up materials on your assigned day to avoid waiting in long lines.
   4. Textbooks are picked up at the campus store where you are taking classes.

      area, which will be clearly marked. At the time of pickup, a University Stores employee will go over your
      books with you to ensure completeness.
   6. You will be provided a receipt at the time of pickup. This receipt will be stamped DUAL ENROLLMENT No
      Fee Material. This is your receipt. Keep it. This receipt is necessary to assist you should you need to
      exchange your books.
   7. DO NOT open shrink-wrapped or sealed books or access codes until 100% certain that you are keeping the
      course. Wait until after classes start to open your shrink-wrapped or sealed books or access codes.
   8. Textbooks that are distributed to you will have one of two stickers attached:

       a. DUAL ENROLLMENT RENTAL
           These materials will be identified with a DUAL ENROLLMENT RENTAL sticker.
           These materials need to be returned to the University Stores location at which you picked up your
             materials.
           These materials need to remain in resalable condition. Minor highlighting and notes are OK.

     b. DUAL ENROLLMENT CONSUMABLE
          These materials are a one-semester use product and do not need to be returned to University Stores.
          These materials will be identified with a DUAL ENROLLMENT CONSUMABLE sticker.
          Dual Enrollment Consumables are typically access codes, homework management software, lab
           manuals or workbooks.

Changing Classes
    1. If you change courses during the drop/add period, bring your unneeded materials to the store along with
       your receipt and KSU ID. They will exchange the unneeded books from the dropped course for the ones
       needed in the added course.
    2. You can also verify what is needed for your courses by logging into Owl Express. Click the tab for “Student
       Services” and then click “KSU Bookstore.”
    3. If you have any questions about changing courses and how to exchange your textbooks, email
       books@kennesaw.edu or call the store.

Given the Wrong Books?
If you were given incorrect books, stop by the store right away so they can replace the wrong materials with the ones
you need. We encourage you to verify you have the correct books on the first day of class by checking your syllabus.

Missing a Book, Manual, Access Code, etc.?
Dual Enrollment covers textbooks that are listed as “required” on the course syllabus. Items listed as
“recommended” are not covered under Dual Enrollment funding. If you did not receive a required book or item
when you picked up your course materials, please return to the store with a copy of the course syllabus stating that
the book is required and they will assist you.

Returning Your Textbooks
     1.   Textbooks are provided for you to use for the duration of the upcoming semester, however, course
          materials remain the property of University Stores.
     2.   DO NOT sell your course materials to University Stores, another Bookstore, or to another student. These
          materials are the property of University Stores.
     3.   Highlighting and note taking in your books is OK.
     4.   Frequently, we see books returned water-damaged. Books that come back water-damaged are subject to a
          $75 replacement fee.
     5. Other excessive damage (broken spine, missing pages) may also result in a $75 replacement fee.
     6. Dual Enrollment Rental Textbooks must be returned to University Stores by the end of the semester.
